The "1885-20??" league needs 1 new owner to takeover a team that is on autopilot (season started May 31st). It is a keeper league in which each season brings in a new set of players to the draft pool. The new players progressively come from the next 5 year timeframe. We have just now started season 13 which includes the years 1885-1959. (Season 14 will then bring in players whose rookie year was 1960-64, and season 15 will bring in 1965-69 players, etc.)

Sooners... This is a competitive league in which owners work hard at drafting and building their teams to be competitive. The Wagner-Mathewson team, currently named the Deadheads, had an 87-75 record and just missed the playoffs.

If you enjoy researching and drafting, I highly encourage you to claim this team and make a pennant run.

The league is halfway through its planned lifetime. It's the Deadheads' draft choice right now in the 1st Round for Season 13.

Good Luck to the new owners. I have been in this from the beginning and would rate this a 2F League--Fun and Frustrating.
Good research produces Gems on the diamond. The real work comes after the HOF players disappear.
